Good point. I'll agree with that

You liberals are funny. THis thread is about showing that 80 percent of shooting in this country are gang related..you know the same stats that you liberals mix in with other gun deaths to try to discredit gun ownership in America despite it being a Constitutional Right. The stats dont lie. Certain races and heritages are much more predisposed to violence than others, mostly because of lack of family structure at the core. Instead of attacking that structure in a positive manner to better it and holding your own to account, you cower at the thought and call others racist who post a stat from a credible national organization. It's easier to turn your back and attack law abiding people.

do scalded apes really whine? I would imagine if an ape were scalded, then that would be a very painful proposition...don't you think? so whining probably wouldn't be their first natural reaction...dont you think?

When you were concocting this senario in your brain...were you tossing hot liquid on them form outside thier cage or were you close enough for them to possibly rip your face off? Because if you were close enough for them to possibly rip your face off...I would go with them most likely to ripping your face off instead of whining.

I'm not saying we shouldn't care about certain victims. We should care about all victims. I mentioned the Black victimization rate because judging by the way this thread was written, the message might have been "Black people are a menace to society, avoid them all".

But what difference does it make who is murdered? Is it more justifiable that one group is murdered compared to other groups? Why is saying black people are more likely to murder racist but saying black people are more likely to murder and be murdered is not racist.

An even more important question is this: Why did he make a reference to apes when he was talking about Blacks?

I don't get the logic here. Whatever the OPs motives how are facts racist?

Consider this. The way the first post was written, it was like the OP was trying to say "Blacks are coming for your children, hide them all, avoid all Blacks". That is why the Black on Black murder statistic is brought up. It was brought up because it seems like this thread was started as a way of saying "Blacks are a threat to society". It is not considered what segment of the Black population commits the majority of the murders, or who gets murdered the most.

Deflection. Excuses. Sad..sad..sad... Why dont use ask the CDC why they posted such data? Or why dont you do something to help rectify that stat of violence. Instead point and and blame others..You'll accomplish nothing that way!
